Poem featured on Mass Poetry website

One more online link!  I'm very pleased that my poem, "In Both Hands," has been featured on the Mass Poetry website as one of their "Poems of the Moment":  http://masspoetry.org/2012/05/18/in-both-hands-by-lisken-van-pelt-dus/.  It was originally published in the Warwick Review.

My thanks to Jackie Malone!  Please also take a little time to enjoy some of the other poems on the site - it's a terrific group.

Reading in Pittsfield, Massachusetts

I'm happy to be reading as part of Pittsfield's 10x10 on North mid-winter arts festival this month - so much dynamic stuff going on!

Come see me at yBar at 391 North Street, on Friday, February 24 at 8 PM. I'll read for about twenty minutes - and then we can enjoy some cheese and wine - or maybe some chocolate covered strawberries! - together.

See you there.
